Teams for Linux does not use Freedesktop dbus notifications
Is there any plans to implement Freedesktop dbus notifications as an option to the Teams for Linux?
At the moment it's a custom notification which I can't control, and it breaks in tiling window managers such as Sway or i3. (Steals focus and position is always on the middle of the screen.)
- Hi jonasks,
AFAIK, not currently.
I have opened a uservoice here
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/39279040-introduce-freedesktop-dbus-notifications-for-linux
Would recommend for you to vote on it to push it up the agenda
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

Cheers. For a hacky workaround for this specific app i3 and Sway users can do this (where they edit the position to their own needs) in their configs:
no_focus [title="Microsoft Teams Notification"]for_window [title="Microsoft Teams Notification"] move absolute position 4812 px 1316 px- Yevgeniy35Copper Contributor
jonasksHi, thanks for the solution. But in my case it works for a first notification popup only, any others stay at the center of screen. Did you face it?
